Materials Data on Si5Rh4 by Materials Project
Abstract
Rh4Si5 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Rh3+ sites. In the first Rh3+ site, Rh3+ is bonded to six Si+2.40- atoms to form distorted RhSi6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent RhSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, corners with six equivalent RhSi6 pentagonal pyramids, edges with six equivalent RhSi6 octahedra, a faceface with one RhSi7 pentagonal bipyramid, and a faceface with one RhSi6 pentagonal pyramid. There are a spread of Rh–Si bond distances ranging from 2.40–2.52 Å. In the second Rh3+ site, Rh3+ is bonded to six Si+2.40- atoms to form distorted RhSi6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with six equivalent RhSi6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent RhSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with four equivalent RhSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent RhSi6 pentagonal pyramids, a faceface with one RhSi6 octahedra, and a faceface with one RhSi7 pentagonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 46–49°. There are a spread of Rh–Si bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.48 Å. In the third Rh3+ site, Rh3+ is bonded to seven Si+2.40- atoms to form distorted RhSi7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with six equivalent RhSi6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent RhSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges withmore »
